Network Device Education Foundation, Inc. (NetDEF), is pleased to announce that its founder, Steven Noble, will be presenting an in-depth user tutorial on Open Networking at the OpenDaylight Summit on Monday, July 27, 2015 during the 1:30 p.m. time period.
The tutorial has been designed to cater to members of the networking community who are looking to integrate SDN concepts into their existing network infrastructure utilizing the OpenDaylight SDN Controller and OpenFlow capable switches. The tutorial will consist of multiple network devices configured to emulate a standard LAN running classic routing protocols that will be migrated to a simple Software Defined Network utilizing the OpenDaylight SDN controller, Quagga and OpenFlow.

Mr. Noble is recognized for his expertise in the area of networking going back nearly two decades, having worked for companies such as Cisco Systems, Exodus Communications and, most recently, as the Chief Technology Officer at Sideband Networks.

“OpenDaylight is pleased to welcome NetDEF to the OpenDaylight Summit in Santa Clara,” said Neela Jacques, executive director, OpenDaylight. “It’s been great to see them do some of the first third party scalability testing of OpenDaylight, and and we’re delighted they will be sharing their expertise via a tutorial on how to integrate OpenDaylight into existing networks.”

About the OpenDaylight Summit:

OpenDaylight Summit is where the industry meets to collaborate on networking’s de facto open SDN platform. It brings together users, developers and the SDN community to discuss, debate and demonstrate the latest technologies and trends in open SDN.

About the Network Device Education Foundation:

Network Device Education Foundation, Inc. (NetDEF), is pleased to announce that it will be presenting a demonstration of the IS-IS HomeNet implementation in Quagga at the 93rd IETF on Thursday, July 23, 2015 during the IETF Bits-N-Bites.

The IS-IS HomeNet implementation has been done in both C and Erlang and both will be demonstrated.

About the IETF Bits-N-Bites:

Bits-N-Bites is focused on Internet standards, technology and related subjects. Nearly 1,200 engineers, computer scientists and academicians, who are in the forefront of developing standards for the continuing expansion and robustness of the Internet from more than 40 countries and leading corporations worldwide, will meet at IETF 93 in Prague, Czech Republic.

Exhibitors, product vendors, and service providers will be able to share information and showcase products and services to IETF community in a social setting with hors d’oeuvres and cocktails.

As of January 1st, 2015, Router Analysis is a project of The Network Device Education Foundation, Inc.

Started in 2011, Router Analysis provides unbiased information, reviews and testing of hardware network devices such as routers and switches.

The Router Analysis Project is lead by Steven Noble who has over 20 years of experience with Routers, Switches, Networks and Systems. He was most recently the CTO at Sideband Networks. Previously Steven worked at XDN, Cisco Systems, Procket Networks and Exodus Communications.
